Areas vs. industries vs. categories. Industries describe who buys an API (financial services, healthcare). Categories describe what an API does (analytics, payments, identity-access). Areas are the API Evangelist research areas — the corners of the API landscape (design, deployment, gateways, security, testing, webhooks) that Kin Lane has tracked for years. Each area has its own home at <area>.apievangelist.com; here on APIs.io each is cross-linked to the providers working in it.
